[AMRadio] Heath tubes

2006-10-28 Thread Alan Beck
Does anyone have NOS tubes or recent tubes for the HR-10 RX by heath. Basically I think I need a 6X4 and 2 6BE8's to start with to clean things up. When I turn up my RF gain the frequency shifts. The RF gain is going to ground via the cathode of the first 6BE8 in the circuit. 73, Alan VY2W

Alan: I have a friend whose HR-10B does the same thing. A new tube may not fix the problem. We have speculated that the voltage regulator for the converter tube might not be stable enough or changeing the gain control setting may cause the load to the HF oscillator to shift which would indica

[AMRadio] 10 meter frequencies

2006-10-28 Thread Mike Duke, K5XU
It sounds like you have the voice frequencies covered well. One possible cw frequency is 28.060. That's the QRP operating frequency. Those of us who operate qrp will often call cq there just to test the propagation. Most of the other cw is in the first 25 khz of the band unless there is a cont

[AMRadio] 15 & 10 meters

2006-10-28 Thread Mike Duke, K5XU
Ever wondered how a contest will cause the bands to open for the duration of the event, then immediately die again? Excluding 6 meters, you rarely see the bands dead during a contest, and full of life afterwards. As was mentioned in another post, both 15 and 10 were open today. Judging by the
